If you think about it, only hotel guests would be able to get a new key... they would have to show the old key (that presumably matches the design of that hotel) and claim it was deprogrammed. While theoretically possible, I would guess the odds of a current hotel guest wanting to do harm to another current hotel guest are pretty slim.Did not take a photo of my ID at check in. He asked for it, I gave it to him, he looked at it, and slid it back to me. Even if they had, the girl did not look at any file. She just asked me what room I was in, took out a plastic room card and entered my room into a calculator-looking machine, slid the card through it and hand it to me.
I don't go past the front desk to access my room. My room is closer to the "back door" I can access with my room card. Even if that were the case, that they see me going back and forth, there is no way they know what room I am staying in just by me walking back and forth. Anyone in that hotel with a room key could have told them their key didn't work, give them my room a number, and wah-lah! Instant access to my room. That's ok because the front desk people see this person walking back and forth each day, they must be staying in the room they say they are?
I would hope if someone walks in saying they got locked out of the room or lost the key the front desk would at least ask for the name in addition to the room number.
